We can blame people's greed and desire for money, but it falls on us all. We are all completely complicit, even when we are morally against it.
or people grading land/cutting down old-growth forests/groves/trees or other means of drastically altering habitat, and diverting millions of gallons of water from small creeks that support various salmon and other organisms OR diverting water from surface springs which provide water during peak annual droughts for larger mammals/birds/insects all for some overpriced, somtimes labor-exploiting potentially synthetically grown cannabis

Maybe someone can make a bunch of images about this? Show a buncha overworked, malnourished kids, put a corporate slogan over it or something, and then spread the images around the web?

It would be more effective to use current images, yeah. But those get censored hard time by our great media corporations, so good luck finding them.

Horrifying stuff, Pris. Thanks for posting.
This is what our global system is, people. This is neo-liberal consumer driven capitalism. This is where your phone comes from. And your TV. The diamond in your wife's ring.
And the global powers would do this to us too, if it ever becomes the more profital option for them.

This is also a global problem, because it is our governments and corporations that corrup their politicians, arm rebels that are allied to the corrupt, do business with the corrupt and make an insane profit on the coruption.

sounds like a consumer problem. destroy your electronics because all of them contain tantalum capacitors, refuse to buy another, go tot he apple store and distribute these images and smash the smart phones and ipads, destroy the chinese factories producing the goods and you'll have reduced the need for tantalum

That's more like it.
Even though i wasn't addressing you.
I could care less about either group but if i had to choose one it'd be the group that at least attempts to be civilized.
